I think there may be some kind of law about shooting a neighbours kid...... but then again. :lol

Back on topic, be very careful with poison. If a dog or cat gets to the cake... or to the poisoned squirrel...
Or even a nosy neighbour kid...
Air rifle is a better solution, but be weary of your local gun laws.
Agreed, I used to shoot greys with a .177 at 11.5ft.lb !! 100% head shots, very dead every time :thumb2
I shoot 'em with a .17HMR, very headless every time!
:sly
:lol I bet, that round really shifts, what's a typical distance for you?
Its a tiny ballistic tipped bullet with a helluva lot of powder behind it. It shoots flat out to about 100yards but being small and light gets a bit "drifty" after that. It's not great in windy conditions, but on a day with light wind I'm usually about 70-90 yards from target pests. You can't eat anything after though as the bullet fragments on impact, so riddles the target with bits. That is one of its strong points, you don't get ricochets like a .22 if you miss, it just breaks up.

I like it, everyday is a school day :lol
Yup, I'm still learning how to shoot straight!
